There are no specific examples today of commerial link layers that do
this, but we have done some experiments involving modifying the IS-2000
RAN to support triggers. It works extremely well.

Also, it's possible to generate a "trigger" of sorts by forcing handoff
on certain 802.11 cards that provide to application software the BSSids
for access points the mobile can hear. The mobile can utilize the BSSid
to find the FA or AR address, or it can send it to the AR to find the
address.
